    Plus we saw at the World Curling last week that the whole event was almost ruined by a single false positive anomaly.

    I think you have to factor in a range of sports somehow. In the modern world especially it’s notable that nations can pile up a lot of medals quickly by concentrating resources on a single sport. Also, I think by including events only since 1996 you have created a bit of an anomaly with Usain Bolt & Jamaica.

    It’s the only way they can see hills.

    Diamond League Meet 1 being transferred from Rabat, to Gateshead, ? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/othersports/article-9475471/Second-British-Diamond-League-meeting-added-calendar-Gateshead.html

    No, I remember him perfectly well, but I don’t have the skilz to post two articles side-by-side.

    Dutch athletes are of course famous for their skill in distributing drugs: perhaps The Hague might want to consult them? https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/general/athletics/madiea-ghafoor-drug-trafficking-jail-sentence-ecstasy-crystal-meth-sprinter-olympics-a9185496.htmlhttps://www.independent.co.uk/sport/general/athletics/madiea-ghafoor-drug-trafficking-jail-sentence-ecstasy-crystal-meth-sprinter-olympics-a9185496.html

    2023 is too early, we’ll still be in lockdown for the eleventh wave.

    Good day for - Cavendish makes it a hat-trick in Turkey, Tom Pidcock gets the Brabantse Pijl. Van Aert needing a few weeks off, I think.

    As usual with copyright holders, they block collectors but don’t maintain a proper easily accessible archive of their own material.

    Mark Cavendish gets his first win in over three years in the Tour of Turkey. Race is cold & snow-affected at the moment, so various schedule & route changes. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cycling/56716156

    The problem with a 50% rate is that it does not prevent a virus from becoming endemic. Many years ago I did some work on measles in Scotland & our target was 90% coverage in children, which was considered enough to eliminate the disease. (We got there for a few years in the early 90s, but fell away to about 75% later.)

    It’s one of these impossible debates. There’s so much more sweepers do now compared to even 10 years ago, never mind thirty.

    There’s a difference between “doesn’t work at all” & “works, but has side effects that are only noticeable after a million doses.” Does kind of indicate that whatever pre-release testing was done on the Chinese vaccine was not.....thorough.

    The Chinese vaccine is pretty much useless. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9460177/China-admits-Covid-jabs-not-effective-major-blow-global-health-battle.html

    Just caught up. Tight game in the final, but unfortunately a single.stone not crossing the hog line in the 9th end led to a 5 stone score for & a surrender for . Good tournament overall for us, with our best play in the knock-out games.
  17. Grassmarket
    The opposite for us. We were a bad state in 2018 & 2019, have obviously coped well with lockdown & are now getting back to Rio form.
  18. Grassmarket
    Just caught up with that from last night. A 9th & 10th end for the ages from Scotland, fantastic play.

    You’d think they’d be happy with all the new species of fish they’re going to get.

    Could have been worse. At least he didn’t stab himself.

    I suggested “The Team of the Moscow Patriarchate” months ago.

    That’s some London 2012 crowds there. Greeks hungry for live Olympic sport after a 1500 year lockdown.

    There are still many authorities refusing to do them.

    If that were the case, then it should be trivially easy to organise recounts & ballot audits. Yet everywhere in the USA and even Burma now we see voting authorities & courts moving heaven & earth to prevent or forbid such recounts.
